Comparisons Featuring alcatel Pixi 3 (4.5)
Short Review
- The Alcatel Pixi 3 (4.5) features a compact design with dimensions of 132.2 x 65.1 x 10 mm and a weight of 125 grams, making it lightweight and portable.
- Its 4.5-inch TFT display offers a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels, resulting in a pixel density of approximately 218 ppi, which is adequate for basic tasks but lacks vibrancy.
- Performance is driven by either a dual-core 1.0 GHz Cortex-A7 or a quad-core 1.1 GHz Cortex-A53 processor, depending on the model, paired with 4GB of RAM, allowing for basic multitasking.
- The rear camera is available in 5 MP or 8 MP configurations, capable of recording video at 720p on the 4G model, while the front lacks a selfie camera.
- The battery capacity is 1400 mAh, which may require frequent recharging under regular use.
- Running on Android 4.4.2 (KitKat), the software experience is dated and may limit access to newer applications.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The device is equipped with a microUSB 2.0 port for charging and data transfer.
- Available colors include black and white, but it lacks water resistance.
- Overall, the Alcatel Pixi 3 (4.5) serves basic functionality without advanced features.
